What a combo – The Black Dog and a selection of stunning Kraut grooves. You know it’s gonns be a winner.
“It’s now so hard to imagine a time when there was no synths and a time when musicians/artists didn’t stick to the tried and tested formulas that would become rockisms of modern music. Many of the original Krautrockers paved the way for much modern electronic music, influencing all that bands that influenced us in turn.
We’ve gone for a pretty wide mix of artists and included people like Stockhausen and Nono because they are pretty much the godfathers of everything electronic. We hope you enjoy it.” – The Black Dog

PBK recently posted these personal mixtapes made for him by a young Jim O’Rourke. It’s not often you get to hear an artists influences in such a direct manner, so these are pretty special.
“”Rummaging through boxes I came across two mixtapes sent to me by Jim O’Rourke in 1989. At the time, Jim was an eager 19 year old music student at DePaul University. He also performed and recorded in my friend Dan Burke’s industrial music project: Illusion Of Safety.
Jim would call me on the phone every week or two when I lived in California. We had many conversations about music, discussing different genres/composers and he’d send mixtapes and cd’s for me to hear some of the things he’d been listening to. He was a huge fan of Van Dyke Parks’ 1968 LP, “Song Cycle“. He was also very excited, at the time, about Godflesh who appear on the C-60 tape here. He sent me Godflesh’s “Streetcleaner” cd and compared them to “Red”-era King Crimson.
We were quite close for a couple of years. He contributed a beautiful solo track to my “Assemblage” comp. tape in 1990. Later he even asked to produce an album for me, but I declined, mainly because I couldn’t see what role a “producer” would play in creating one of my albums.
O’Rourke sent me several mixtapes of electroacoustic music, below are the playlists and links for two of these, they give some insight into his listening tastes in the late 80’s, long before he worked with Faust, Wilco or Sonic Youth. There’s a lot of great stuff on these tapes. The Parmegianni and Bayle tracks are absolutely awesome. The Paul Dolden compositions are impressive, his compositional method is, apparently, quite rigorous as he uses up to 400 overdubs to achieve his massive sounds. The Robert Ashley track, with it’s psycho-sexual overtones, is unique and haunting. Enjoy these in typical mixtape style, with no track separation!” – PBK via The Sound Genetic

Meatskull highly recommended! Free ep from Shlomo..
“From across the misty hills of San Francisco, we welcome kid Shlohmo with his long-awaited Shlo-Fi EP for release at Error Broadcast. His instant-classic Shlomoshun EP made faces fall earlier this year but this one will boost the cat to a whole new level.
19-years old Shlohmo delivers the soundtrack for the LA aftershow party. His tracks swarm from dirty textures, strange sounds and obscured samples. It’s not Hip Hop what you hear, but the echoes are clearly there: under the blanket the beats are alive and kicking, the compression is awful (as we love it) and from the way Shlohmo arranges his tracks, it is clear what this kid listens to at night.
Solanaceous and surreal music from the point Burial and Fly Lo let off.”
